I'm trying to install a new theme on my mybb forum, and I keep gettin:

Quote:The following errors were encountered:
MyBB could not find the theme with the file you uploaded. Please check the file is the correct and is not corrupt.

I'm trying to use the "Royal Dust" Theme:
http://mods.mybb.com/download/a-royal-dust-theme

How can I install the theme manuallly? I tried ftpíng to mybb/themes directory, but that doesn't appear on the themes tab in mybb admin.

1) Upload all contents in the Upload folder to your MyBB root directory. After doing that you should have a new directory in the ./images/ folder, called "royal_dust".
2) Go to AdminCP > Templates & Style > Themes > Import a Theme.
3) In file field under Local file select the RoyalDust-theme.xml file that is included in the zip file.
4) Click Import Theme at the bottom
-- You might have to select the "Ignore Version Compatibility" option if the import gives you the incompatibility error. Start from step 2 again but check the "Ignore Version Compatibility" option before clicking the Import Theme button.

Are you uploading the file from local computer?

I was trying to use the zip file directly on the install.. Dumb me!
But well, it could be a bit more explicity that you need to especify only the xml file

1. If there are images that come with the theme, upload them to the images folder.
2. You have an option on what to do with the .xml file:
1. Upload it to your server (anywhere within the MyBB folder will do, as long as you know where it is); or,
2. Upload it later to the server when it is time to import the theme via the Theme Manager (if the upload is too big for your server, use the first method above)
3. Use the import utility of the Themes manager. If you decided to go with the latter option above, select the .xml file for upload. If you uploaded the .xml file to the server, type in the path to the .xml file relative to the MyBB root folder.
4. If the import is successful, congratulations!

Thanks a lot, that worked.

With the exception that the CSS arent been loaded.

In the source I can see:
http://www.forumdobengal.com/cache/theme...global.css

But that doesn't exist... Do I need to do something else to clean this cache?

It seems to be fixed now.

I'm getting still getting 2 warnings of reports on the main page when I log in as admin.
How can I get rid of that?

How can I get empty buttons so that I can translate them myself?
